Yes indeed. I'll be glad when the 53 man roster comes out so I can start.

Nothing like getting the 53 and starting the season proper.

Following.

Brian Cushing gets 6-year extension

Cushing

HOUSTON -- The Texans signed inside linebacker Brian Cushing to a six-year contract extension Tuesday, locking up their defensive leader through the 2019 season, according to a league source.

The deal is worth $55.643 million, including $21 million guaranteed, according to media reports.

Cushing was entering the final season of his rookie contract he signed as the No. 15 overall pick in 2009. The timing of the deal is key because the Texans normally don't negotiate new contracts once the season begins.

Cushing missed most of last season with a torn ACL. He suffered the injury in Week 5 against the New York Jets as the result of an illegal block by Jets guard Matt Slauson.

The Texans allowed at least 25 points in five of the 11 regular-season games he missed.

A Pro Bowler in his rookie season and All-Pro in 2011, Cushing has registered 238 tackles and 9.5 sacks in 49 career regular-season games.

Cushing is one of the centerpieces of a Texans defense that also includes reigning Defensive Player of the Year J.J. Watt and cornerback Johnathan Joseph.

Watt offered congratulations to Cushing via Twitter.



In order to free the salary-cap space to sign Cushing, the team restructured receiver Andre Johnson's deal to reduce a $10.5 million salary this year to $5 million in base salary and $5.5 million in bonuses, a league source said.

Injury-riddled draft class takes another hit

HOUSTON -- The Houston Texans already placed three draft picks on injured reserve this year and now a fourth has suffered a significant injury.

Rookie offensive lineman David Quessenberry suffered a broken foot in practice, a source confirmed. The Texans will not put Quessenberry on injured reserve today, I'm told. Had they done it yesterday, he would not have gotten his full salary for this week. But since he is on the active roster now, he gets his salary for the week regardless. Quessenberry could be a candidate for the injured reserve designation to return as this type of injury typically takes two or three months of recovery

It's a shame for Quessenberry, who was the most promising draft pick the Texans had after DeAndre Hopkins and D.J. Swearinger. If the Texans place Quessenberry on IR, he would follow Trevardo Williams, Brennan Williams and Alan Bonner to the reserve list.

Trevardo Williams' IR designation might have something to do with wanting him to develop a little more. Brennan Williams had an injury history, he had a season-ending injury last October when he tore his labrum in his left shoulder. Right now it's Brennan Williams' knee that has swollen on him each time the Texans have tried to test it. And Alan Bonner never really got going, working through a hamstring injury for most of the summer.

While the best two have remained relatively healthy (Hopkins is recovered from his concussion), that's not where you want most of your draft class.
